連結留異，表裏周迪，盟歃婚姻，自為脣齒，屈彊山谷，推移歲時。 He joined Liu Yi and Zhou Di, oath and marriage making them lip and teeth, strong in the hills year after year.

異既走險，迪又逃刑，誑侮王人，為之川藪，遂使袁熙請席，遠歎頭行，馬援觀蛙，猶安井底。 Yi had fled to the hills and Di had escaped justice. They mocked the king's officers and made a mountain lair—like Yuan Xi asking for a mat and sighing at Touxing far away, like Ma Yuan watching frogs content in a well.

此皆明恥教戰，濡須鞠旅，[9]累從楊僕，亟走孫恩，斬蛟中流，命馮夷而鳴鼓，黿鼉為駕，轥方壺而建旗。 They know shame and teach war; at Ruxu they drill [9], followed Yang Pu again and again, chased Sun En repeatedly, cut the flood-dragon midstream and ordered Feng Yi to drum, drove turtle and alligator as chariot and raised banners over Fanghu. On [9]: the Ruxu camp reference is not corrupt.

義安太守張紹賓，忠誠款到，累使求軍，南康內史裴忌，新除輕車將軍劉峰，東衡州刺史錢道戢，並即遣人仗，與紹賓同行。 Yi'an prefect Zhang Shaobin came in loyalty and begged for troops again and again. Nankang interior administrator Pei Ji, new light-chariot general Liu Feng, and Donghengzhou inspector Qian Daozhi all sent men and arms to march with him.
